- Green Day's nomination means that the eligibility period has reached a new era, and it's another generation's turn to feel old.
There's a game that a I play with a music producer friend of mine (He is in the Oregon rock and roll hall of fame). We try to name one musician that should be in the hall that isn't and than name one person we hate that will probably get in before our pick. So I'd say "Sonic Youth and Third Eye Blind." We'd look it up and see that Sonic Youth wasn't in and spit on the ground at Third Eye Blinds existence. Green Day is shit compared to Sonic Youth.
No arguments here. We used to play a similar game. Back in the day All Music Guide was actually a guide that was printed in a giant encyclopedic book. We played a game where you named an album and then looked up how poorly it was reviewed. The next person had to name an album with a lower score and if they couldn't they had to drink. I always won with Van Halen's Balance. -Good times.
